Corporal Phillip Nall, Corporal Todd Watson and Corporal Peter Ampupja were awarded the Combat Action Ribbon, the Navy Unit Commendation, the National Defense BY MELISSA BELTZ e Clewiston NewsThe city of Clewiston will continue their years-long tradition of providing a free reworks display for the community this year on the Fourth of July. Independence Day 2014 falls on a Friday, and the reworks show is set to begin promptly after dark at Sugarland Sports Complex, according to Public Works Director Sean Schef er. Schef er, who has worked for the city of Clewiston for the past 35 years, said the city has been putting on an annual display since before he joined their team. Though the show may not grow "bigger and better" as the years progress, the city utilizes the same amount of money each year for the show. Unfortunately, as costs go up from year to year, the show must go on with the same amount of funding, said Schef er. The city contracts through Zambelli Fireworks, out of Boca Raton, which provides everything needed for the show, including the explosives, permits, safety equipment and man power. Zambelli comes in, shoots, cleans up and goes, said Schef er. The reworks show begins at dusk -around 8:30 p.m. -at Sugarland Sports Complex in Clewiston. There are no other city sponsored events on July 4 this year.

FCATContinued From Page 1 FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTHTo help protect consumers and inform them about the risks of indoor tanning, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is strengthening its regulation of sunlamp products, such as tanning booths and tanning beds, and requiring that they carry a visible, black-box warning that sunlamp products should not be used on people under 18 years of age. Using sunlamp products, such as tanning beds or tanning booths, increases the risk of skin damage, skin cancer and eye injury, according to the FDA and numerous other health organizations. A particularly dangerous result is melanoma, the deadliest type of skin cancer. According to the American Academy of Dermatology and the World Health Organization, indoor tanning heightens the risk of developing melanoma by 59 percent, and the risk goes up with each use. Despite these risks, according to the American Cancer Society (ACS), thousands of Americans will opt for an indoor tan. The ACS estimates that nearly 13,000 people die each year from skin cancers approximately 9,700 of which are from melanoma. The ACS predicts that in 2014, melanoma will account for 76,100 cases of skin cancer. To help protect consumers and inform them about the risks of indoor tanning, FDA is changing its regulation of sunlamp products and UV lamps intended for use in sunlamp products. The changes strengthen the oversight of these devices and require that sunlamp products carry a visible, black-box warning stating that they should not be used on people under the age of 18. This change is due to concerns that the effects of UV radiation add up over time, and children and teenagers who are exposed to indoor UV radiation are at greater risk for skin and eye damage. "There is increasing evidence that tanning in childhood to early adult life increases the risk of skin cancer, including melanoma," says FDA dermatologist Markham Luke, M.D., Ph.D. In fact, according to an overview of studies published in the journal Pediatrics, melanoma is the second most common cancer in women in their 20s and the third most common cancer in men in their 20s in the U.S. Luke adds that many experts believe that at least one reason is the increased use of sunlamp products by U.S. teenagers and young adults. The overview in Pediatrics suggests that doses of UV radiation emitted by high pressure sunlamp products may be up to 10 to 15 times higher than that of the midday sun, an intensity not found in nature. UV-A radiation penetrates to the deeper layers of the skin and is often associated with allergic reactions, such as rashes. This is not to say that outdoor tanning is safe. In fact, the World Health Organization has classi ed all UV radiation as carcinogenic (cancer causing).

Adult Wood Storks have a black face and a thick, downcurved, dusky, yellow bill. This long-legged, mostly white bird is the only stork that presently breeds in North America. On land, it appears all white, with blackish-gray legs and pink feet. When it ies with its outstretched neck, black can be seen on the trailing edge of the wings. Juvenile Wood Storks have duller feathers and are generally browner on the neck and have a paler bill than the adult. Wood Storks are usually silent, but make nasally, barking calls while in the nesting colony. Their diet consists of sh and occasionally cray sh, amphibians, baby alligators or snakes. Wood Storks are tactile feeders who sh by touch. They slosh their bills around in the water or startle prey into their bill by stirring up the water with their foot. When prey touches the bill, the Wood Stork snaps its mouth shut. This snap re ex is the fastest re ex measured in any vertebrate. Wood Storks nest in colonies with up to 25 large, stick nests in one tree. Eggs are incubated by both parents in 27 to 32 days. Chicks weigh about two ounces at birth and are unable to y. Week-old chicks are fed by adults about 15 times per day. A colony is considered successful if at least 1.5 young edge per nest.

SAMUEL S. THOMAS, PH. D.+ Saint Martins ChurchThere are certain paradoxes for those who require simple answers to lifes questions. What happens inside of my computer to give me all of the material it can generate? How does my body heal itself when I am sick? Why should relationships range from friendship to enemies even if I am the same person to all I meet? Why do people love each other? The list can go on and on. I dont ever expect to know all of the answers; there is no person on the face of the earth that has all of the answers to everything. In faith, there are paradoxes, too. Religion has its mysteries and has had them from the beginning. For Christians, the idea that the Lord is both God and man is a mystery. How God reveals Himself as a Trinity is another great mystery, too. I try to share it by using familiar examples: Water, ice, steam  three manifestations of the same matter, but basically the same stuff. Saint Patrick used the shamrock to explain to the Irish people about the threeand-one nature of God. All means to explain are useful, none are perfect. But there are others who want things simpler. One scholar felt we dont need a committee God. Others still deny there is more than one nature to God; monotheism has been around for a long time. Others believe that there was a prophet that lived a long time ago and did good things, but certainly wasnt God. I note from the earliest times our spiritual ancestors understood God as one being with more than one person. The story of Creation in Genesis (chapter 1, verse 26) tells of God saying, Let US make man in OUR image, in our likeness  before the creation of human beings. God speaks in plurality; and who would God be talking to? From the earliest moments, revelation begins with more than one person of one substance. From the beginning, God is a paradox, a mystery not to be understood, but to be accepted. More important for me is that I do not have to understand but accept. When I accept, I can make use of and be thankful for all of the paradoxes in my life. I can use the computer, I can be thankful I am healed when I need to be, I can be thankful for friends and come to terms with those who are not friendly, I can accept that I am loved by others and never understand why. Now, I can also accept the idea that God, too, is a mystery and I can accept it. This revelation helps me live in the world that God has created. As I read the news and see it on TV, I cannot help but wonder what goes on in the minds of those who do many of the crazy things that I see. Recently, the President was disturbed about the rash of school shootings. More recently we hear about people going berserk on an aircraft in ight and being dangerous to passengers and crew, as well as to themselves. What is it that makes such people not stand others to a degree that they will endanger them and themselves? Is it perhaps that they cannot accept some of the paradoxes of life, that others are different and not to be understood, but to be respected in their right to have life and peace too? Is it perhaps that their world is full of fear of the unknown and it manifests itself by lashing out in destructive ways? People are different, they are not understood, I dont have all of the answers. If somehow I interpret their actions as bullying or hostile toward me, does that somehow give me the right to do damage? Rather, I have to come to terms with the things I dont understand. I accept the differences, avoid them if need be, and, yes, they cause me problems, but I know there are mysteries out there and I live accordingly. Maybe God is revealing His nature to us to say we will not fully understand, but we can appreciate, enjoy, tolerate, respect. No need to lose your bearings and go off the deep end. It works for the faithful, it can work for you too. If you would like to contact Rev. Thomas about this column or have an idea for one, please send an email to fatherthomas@ saintmartins-clewiston.org.Community Christian EventsCLEWISTON  The Red Barn Gospel Sing will be held at the Community Christian Church during the summer months.

SPRING SPECIAL! Serving the communities south of Lake Okeechobee June 26, 2014 6 FLORIDA MARIJUANA INFOFlorida has become the 22nd state in the nation (23rd to legalize, including Washington, D.C.) to pass legislation supporting the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes. Governor Rick Scott signed Senate Bill 1030 -the Charlottes Web bill -on June 16, with overwhelming support from Florida citizens and the Florida legislature. The bill passed 111-7 in the House and 30-9 in the Senate. This is de nitely a major step in furthering medical marijuana usage in our state, said David Cohn, editor-in-chief of FloridaMarijuanaInfo.org. But its important our citizens clearly understand what this bill means to people suffering from debilitating diseases, and the pros and the cons associated with it.About SB 1030In its most simple form, SB1030 decriminalizes medical professionals recommendations and patients use of a particular strain of a lowTHC cannabis for speci c medicinal purposes. It means a doctor can order the usage of a certain strain of cannabis for treatment of speci c ailments as outlined in the bill. These ailments include cancer, Parkinsons disease, multiple sclerosis, other physical medical conditions that chronically produce symptoms of seizures or severe and persistent muscle spasms, and its original intended purpose -pediatric epilepsy.

Please take simple precautions to protect from mosquito-borne illnesses which have received increased attention recently in Florida. One way folks can help to prevent mosquito-borne illnesses is to follow the Drain and Cover method, said Pat Dobbins, Administrator/Health Of cer for the Florida Department of Health in Hendry and Glades Counties. DRAIN standing water to stop mosquitoes from multiplying. Drain water from garbage cans, house gutters, buckets, pool covers, coolers, toys, ower pots or any other containers where sprinkler or rain water has collected. Discard old tires, drums, bottles, cans, pots and pans, broken appliances and other items that arent being used. Empty and clean birdbaths and pets water bowls at least once or twice a week. Protect boats and vehicles from rain with tarps that dont accumulate water. Maintain swimming pools in good condition and appropriately chlorinated. Empty plastic swimming pools when not in use. COVER skin with clothing or repellent. Clothing: Wear shoes, socks, and long pants and long-sleeves. This type of protection may be necessary for people who must work in areas where mosquitoes are present. Repellent: Apply mosquito repellent to bare skin and clothing. Always use repellents according to the label. Repellents with DEET, picaridin, oil of lemon eucalyptus, and IR3535 are effective. Use mosquito netting to protect children younger than two months old. COVER doors and windows with screens to keep mosquitoes out of your house. Repair broken screening on windows, doors, porches, and patios. Drain and Cover

The city of Clewiston has contracted with Emergency Communications Network to license its CodeRED high-speed noti cation solution. The CodeRED system provides city of cials the ability to quickly deliver messages to targeted areas or the entire city. Danny Williams, city of Clewiston Utilities Director, cautioned that such systems are only as good as the telephone number database supporting them. "If your phone number is not in the database, you will not be called." One of the reasons the CodeRED system was selected is it gives individuals and businesses the ability to add their own phone numbers directly into the system's database, this is an extremely important feature. "No one should automatically assume his or her phone number is included," Williams said urging all individuals and businesses to log onto the city of Clewiston's website, www.clewiston- .gov, and follow the link to the "CodeRED Community Noti cation Enrollment" page. Those without Internet access may call Clewiston Utilities' Customer Service Center line at 863-983-1454, Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., to supply their information over the phone. Required information includes rst and last name, street address (physical address, no P.O. boxes), city, state, zip code, and primary phone number, additional phone numbers can be entered, as well. All businesses should register, as well as all individuals who have unlisted phone numbers, who have changed their phone number or address within the past year, and those who use a cellular phone or VoIP phone as their primary number. Williams explained, "CodeRED allows geographically based delivery, which means street addresses are required to ensure emergency noti cation calls are received by the proper individuals in a given situation. The system works for cell phones, too, but we need to have an associated street address to provide relevant messages." Williams stated, "CodeRED gives those who want to be included an easy and secure method for inputting information. The data collected will only be used for emergency noti cation purposes." Questions should be directed to the City of Clewiston Utilities, 863-983-1454.

SCHOOL BRIEFS FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTHSmoke-free multiunit housing, a growing trend throughout the country, is making its way to Florida. Across the state, there are more than 500 smoke-free multiunit housing properties and 73,000 smoke-free units. Many residential properties have already implemented smoking-free policies. For property managers and landlords, smokefree policies can have economic bene ts. More than 80% of Floridians are non-smokers. Many people who do smoke do not permit smoking in their homes. Given these numbers, many properties have very successfully marketed their smoke-free policy as an amenity, not a restriction. Smoke-free policies can save money by eliminating the need to repair or replace carpeting, oors, xtures, countertops or appliances damaged by burns or nicotine stains. At the end of a lease, smoke-free units require less turnover time due to fewer preparation and repainting needs. In one Florida survey of 421 managers of smoke-free properties, 99.5 percent of the managers agreed that smoke-free policies do not hurt occupancy and 30.1 percent believed that they increased occupancy. Tobacco smoke can move along air ducts, through cracks in the walls and oors, through elevator shafts, and along plumbing and electrical lines affecting units that are nearby. Therefore, there are also numerous bene ts for residents as tobacco smoke contains more than 7,000 chemicals, hundreds of which are toxic and at least 70 known to cause cancer. Exposure, even for short periods of time, can be dangerous. A home should be a safe place for everyone, especially for children, people with existing health conditions, and the elderly who are more vulnerable to the effects of secondhand smoke. By making sure that residential buildings are 100 percent smoke-free, property managers are protecting tenants from the dangers of toxic smoke and from the risk of deadly smoking-related res. The following are some of the reasons why it's critical to protect tenants from exposure to secondhand smoke. Secondhand smoke exposure is causally linked to heart disease, stroke, several cancers, lower respiratory illness, and impaired lung function. Each year, among U.S. nonsmokers, exposure to secondhand smoke causes an estimated 33,000 premature deaths from heart disease and about 3,400 premature deaths from lung cancer. Nonsmokers exposed to secondhand smoke at home or at work increase their risk of developing heart disease by 25 to 30 percent and their risk of developing lung cancer by 20 to 30 percent. Secondhand smoke can trigger an asthma attack. A severe asthma attack can put a child's life in danger. In the rst two years of life, children exposed to secondhand smoke have more than a 50 percent increased risk of getting bronchitis and pneumonia. Infants exposed to secondhand smoke are at a greater risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). SIDS is the sudden, unexplained, unexpected death of an infant in the rst year of life. SIDS is the leading cause of death in otherwise healthy infants. Secondhand smoke is not the only danger associated with tobacco use at home. Smokingrelated res are the leading cause of re deaths in residential buildings. These res are eight times more likely to result in death than res that start from another source. Smoking-related res in residential buildings result in an average of approximately 365 deaths, 925 injuries, and $326 million in property loss each year. For more information, visit tobaccofree orida.com/smokefreehousing. Tobacco Free Hendry County is Encouraging Local Residential Buildings to Go Smoke-FreeSmoke-free policies can protect residents from secondhand smoke and smoking-related res vices and radiation-emitting products. Based in part on risk information and recommendations from experts at an earlier FDA Medical Device Advisory Committee meeting, the agency is reclassifying these devices from Class I (low risk) to Class II (moderate risk). FDA can exert more regulatory control over Class II devices, notes FDA medical device expert Neil Ogden. For example, once the reclassi cation is effective, sunlamp products will have to undergo a premarket review by FDA and comply with requirements relating to performance testing, software validation and biocompatibility. FDA is also requiring that certain user instructions and promotional materials for sunlamp products and UV lamps intended for use in sunlamp products include the following warnings and contraindications (a contraindication means that the risk outweighs the bene t): The product is contraindicated for use on persons under the age of 18 years; The product must not be used if skin lesions or open wounds are present; The product should not be used on people who have had skin cancer or a family history of skin cancer; and people repeatedly exposed to UV radiation should be regularly evaluated for skin cancer. "We believe the reclassi cation will not only strengthen oversight of sunlamp products, but also help consumers be better informed about, and protected from, this sort of exposure," Ogden says. Practices to Avoid Certain practices involving sunlamp products are especially dangerous. These include: Failing to wear appropriate protective eye wear, such as goggles, which can lead to shortand long-term eye injury; starting with long exposures (close to the maximum time for the specific sunlamp product) which can lead to burning, and because sunburn takes six to 48 hours to develop, you may not realize your skin is burned until it's too late; failing to follow manufacturerrecommended exposure times on the label for your skin type (some skin types should not tan with UV radiation at all, for example, those with skin that burns easily and doesn't readily tan); and tanning while using certain medications or cosmetics that may make you more sensitive to UV rays. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist rst. SUNContinued From Page 3

WC Owen Avenue Clewiston, FL 33440esellers@centerstatebank.com 11 Serving the communities south of Lake Okeechobee June 26, 2014 BY JENNIFER YOUNG Edison State CollegeChange doesnt come easily for most of usI know it has been dif cult for me at times. Change means reevaluating, adjusting, tweaking, and perhaps more than a few do-overs. Maybe youre like me; a routine gives you a sense of stability, consistency and a predictable sense of security. All of that is good in itself, but at times, or should I say in time, we all need to make necessary changes for the betterment of our futures. Why am I talking about change? Well, Edison State College is going through a major changeincluding its name. In fact, by the time you read this article, it will be old news. Youve probably already noticed the new paint refreshing our old signs and our new logos showing up more often in the community. Change is truly coming fast as we prepare to become Florida SouthWestern State College (FSW). We will have new colorspurple and aquaand we will revive our college mascot the Buccaneerto match our emerging athletics program. We also expect to see growth in our admissions and at the residential housing facility at the Lee Campus LightHouse Commons, as we expand our recruiting efforts. We are moving in a new direction and going forward with renewed vision. Here at our Hendry/Glades Center, we expect great things from what is yet to come. Our new name, Florida SouthWestern State College, gives us a strong regional presence and pulls us together with all of our other campuses as one college. Our new Buccaneers sports teams will also give our small community a team to root for and will provide our local high school athletes with the opportunity to play college ball locally where their friends and family can cheer them on from the stands. FSW will celebrate this change from 11 a.m.1 p.m. on July 1, with simultaneous FSW Spirit Day events held at all three of our campuses and our Hendry/Glades Center. There will be free food, music, giveaways and fun for all ages, and the community is invited to come on out to celebrate with us and ring in this new chapter for the college. One thing is for surechange is in the air.

JEFF ALLBRITTEN President, Florida SouthWestern State CollegeFor more than 50 years, Edison State College has been an integral part of the Southwest Florida community. Beginning July 1, we are Florida SouthWestern State College (FSW). While our name is new, its important for you to know that our mission, our vision and our dedication to the students, businesses and communities we serve remains the same. Simply stated, this is a name change, not a mission change. In the past few years, we have been undergoing an evolution. In order to continue serving our students, we need to be sure that our academic offerings, and the manner in which we deliver them, are designed to meet the demands of today and tomorrow. We now have ve schools that help us do that: the School of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences; the School of Business and Technology; the School of Education; the School of Health Professions; and the School of Pure and Applied Sciences. We have impressive facilities to help our students prepare for their careers, including state-of-the-art nursing simulation labs, a dental hygiene clinic and crime scene investigation software and equipment, for starters. Did you know that we are home to world-class arts icons: the Barbara B. Mann Performing Arts Hall, the Bob Rauschenberg Gallery and the Rush Gallery? Many people may not recall that we were the rst college to have athletics in this area. Starting in the fall 2015, the Buccaneers will return to competition with our softball and baseball teams. We just signed a 10-year lease with Lee County for the City of Palms Park in downtown Fort Myers. When you look back on your college days, youre going to remember the friends youve made both in and out of the classroom. We continue to have strong academic offerings. Now, by having student clubs, intramural sports and now intercollegiate competition, this college offers the complete college experience. Looking ahead, we will continue to evolve as FSW. We are working on offering international studies and experiences, and continuing to build key partnerships with area businesses and our sister institutions. This truly is an exciting time for everyone. Join us as FSW, and Go Bucs! New Name, Same Mission IN ORDER TO CONTINUE SERVING OUR STUDENTS, WE NEED TO BE SURE THAT OUR ACADEMIC OFFERINGS, AND THE MANNER IN WHICH WE DELIVER THEM, ARE DESIGNED TO MEET THE DEMANDS OF TODAY AND TOMORROW.DR. JEFF ALLBRITTEN The 2014 Hurricane Season began on June 1, and Attorney General Pam Bondi wants Floridians to be prepared for the storms and any scams associated with hurricane preparedness or property repair or clean-up in the aftermath of a disaster. To help Floridians protect themselves, Attorney General Bondi has released a hurricane preparedness guide. The guide includes useful tips on what to do to prepare for a storm and information to help consumers spot stormrelated scams in order to avoid becoming victims. Unfortunately, unscrupulous individuals will use the threat of a hurricane and the devastation it can cause to scam Floridians, stated Attorney General Pam Bondi. By providing this hurricane guide, we intend to help Floridians prepare now so they can avoid being scammed. Some of the most common storm-related scams include: tree service scams, charity scams, disaster-relief scams, and water testing and treatment scams. To avoid being scammed when preparing for a storm or dealing with its aftermath, follow these tips: Ask to see Florida Building Commission product approval numbers on storm-proof products for your home and visit www. oridabuilding.com to verify products, check permits for installation of products, report any fraudulent claims on unapproved products, and follow-up with your insurance provider on discounts for hurricane or wind mitigation. Watch-out for price gouging. It is unlawful to raise hotel rental rates or housing leasing rates during a state of emergency. Essential commodities such as lumber, ice, water, generators, and shelter are also protected under the Price Gouging Law. If you suspect price gouging, save receipts and call 1-866-9-NO-SCAM. Never pay for services up front. After the storm, beware of unsolicited workers, have evaluations of damages prepared by your insurance company, obtain multiple estimates and bids on repairs, research companies, check for proof of insurance and verify bonding agencies, and read entire contracts. Ask for references and verify business licenses for anyone who may be performing storm-related work on your property.

19 Serving the communities south of Lake Okeechobee June 26, 2014 BY PAT DOBBINS Florida Department Of HealthSnoring may be more than just an annoying habit  you may have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a sleep disorder that, left untreated, can take its toll on the body and mind. With sleep apnea, your breathing pauses multiple times during sleep. The pauses can last from a few seconds to minutes and can occur more than ve times per hour, to as high as 100 times per hour. (Fewer than ve times per hour is normal). Sometimes, when you start breathing again, you make a loud snort or choking sound. Sleep is momentarily interrupted when this occurs. Untreated OSA has been linked to high blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, car accidents, work-related accidents and depression. According to the American Sleep Association, OSA affects more than 12 million Americans. Sleep apnea is almost twice as common in men as it is in women. Other risk factors include: being overweight, as extra fat tissue around the neck makes it harder to keep the airway open; being over age 40; smoking; having a family history of sleep apnea; and having a nasal obstruction due to a deviated septum, allergies or sinus problem. Children also get sleep apnea, most commonly between ages three and six. The most common cause is enlarged tonsils and adenoids in the upper airway. There are no drugs that are approved by the FDA to treat sleep apnea and there are a number of drugs that can actually make sleep apnea worse, including many for insomnia, anxiety or severe pain. Chronic Disease Insuf cient sleep has been linked to the development and management of a number of chronic diseases and conditions, including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, obesity and depression. Diabetes Research has found that insufcient sleep is linked to an increased risk for the development of Type 2 diabetes. Recent research suggests that optimizing sleep duration and quality may be an important means of improving blood sugar control in persons with Type 2 diabetes. Cardiovascular Disease Persons with sleep apnea have been found to be at an increased risk for a number of cardiovascular diseases. Notably, hypertension, stroke, coronary heart disease and irregular heartbeats (cardiac arrhythmias) have been found to be more common among those with disordered sleep than their peers without sleep abnormalities. Likewise, sleep apnea and hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis) appear to share some common physiological characteristics, further suggesting that sleep apnea may be an important predictor of cardiovascular disease. Obesity Laboratory research has found that short sleep duration results in metabolic changes that may be linked to obesity. Epidemiologic studies conducted in the community have also revealed an association between short sleep duration and excess body weight. This association has been reported in all age groups, but has been particularly pronounced in children. It is believed that sleep in childhood and adolescence is particularly important for brain development and that insuf cient sleep in youngsters may adversely affect the function of a region of the brain known as the hypothalamus, which regulates appetite and the expenditure of energy. Depression The relationship between sleep and depression is complex. While sleep disturbance has long been held to be an important symptom of depression, recent research has indicated that depressive symptoms may decrease once sleep apnea has been effectively treated and suf cient sleep is restored. The interrelatedness of sleep and depression suggests it is important that the sleep suf ciency of persons with depression be assessed and that symptoms of depression be monitored among persons with a sleep disorder. As interruption of regular breathing or obstruction of the airway during sleep can pose serious health complications, symptoms of sleep apnea should be taken seriously. Treatment should be sought from a health care provider. Always Tired? You May Have Sleep Apnea COURTESY PHOTO UNTREATED OSA HAS BEEN LINKED TO HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE, HEART ATTACKS, STROKES, CAR ACCIDENTS, WORK-RELATED ACCIDENTS AND DEPRESSION. ACCORDING TO THE AMERICAN SLEEP ASSOCIATION, OSA AFFECTS MORE THAN 12 MILLION AMERICANS.PAT DOBBINS
